Why join SLFCU?

1. Safety for your moneyThe National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) insures federal credit unions up to $250,000 for share accounts and up to $250,000 for retirement accounts. (Please call us to learn more about your specific coverage.) SLFCU is regulated by the National Credit Union Administration, an independent agency of the federal government.

2. Loan advisors work for you, not for commissionsThey won't "sell" you something to meet a quota. They will listen to your needs, explain options that meet them and save you money, too.

3. Lower loan rates and higher savings ratesAs a not-for-profit, SLFCU returns more to you in loan rates, higher dividends and improved service. SLFCU service charges are rare, and are used to cover operating costs, not to generate large profits.
